For my part, I've had good luck w/ GTK+ on Linux/i386, Linux/AMD64,
Linux/alpha, Windows (there are precompiled MinGW libraries for
Windows) and MacOSX (Fink). If you avoid GNOME additions, then GTK+
is not bad, probably no worse then Xt. (Heck, it doesn't even
require X Windows:-) It's when the GNOME nonsense kicks in that
all heck breaks loose.
